Chapter 1501 - I’ll Just Ask One Question. Who Objects?
Wen Xiuzhu’s expression darkened, and she suddenly waved her hand. “Let’s stop him together!”
The vast majority of the Northern Abyss Star Domain’s experts were out searching for good fortune.
Even so, there were around sixty of them present. When they heard Wen Xiuzhu’s orders, they joined forces and attacked.
Boom!
All manner of treasures took the skies, Fire and light burst forth, and destructive power blanketed the air. All of it enveloped Su Yi.
The quickest of these attacks came from Wen Xiuzhu. She was like a beam of white light as she drew her war sword and attacked.
Quick and direct, forceful and unstoppable.
Of late, the leading expert of the Northern Abyss Star Domain, Yu Chen, had been in seclusion. Wen Xiuzhu had overseen things in his stead this whole time.
And everyone had long since witnessed to her strength.
Take this slash, for instance. It was like an arc of white light piercing the sun, quick as lightning. Stingingly bright sword intent made both heaven and earth change color. Even just watching from afar was enough to strike terror into the onlookers’ hearts.
Among the cultivators of the Northern Abyss Star Domain, Wen Xiuzhu is second only to Yu Chen. She’s leading a whole group of experts against Su Yi. How could this possibly go well for him?
This thought had only just flashed through Ren Changqing’s head when his eyes widened.
He\'d just watched as Su Yi snorted coldly and, without making any attempt to dodge, casually threw a punch.
Bang!!!
Wen Xiuzhu’s sword qi shattered, inch by inch.
That tyrannical, unstoppable fist force continued ahead, its power entirely undiminished as it slammed into Wen Xiuzhu.
Her beautiful eyes focused as she swung her sword with all her might.
But a moment later, a heaven-shaking impact rang out, and both Wen Xiuzhu and her sword were sent flying back.
One punch, and she’d been forced back!
And as Su Yi took another step forward, his sleeves billowed around him, and he pressed down on the air behind him.
Boom!!
Far-reaching and mighty sword intent surged forth, like a divine mountain slamming into the Human Realm. It crushed the very air itself, scattering the clouds.
The Northern Abyss Cloud Soaring cultivators’ treasures and secret arts amounted to nothing at all in the face of this sword intent. They broke instantly, crushed in a single hit.
And when that sword intent fully landed, it cleaved open a massive chasm.
Explosive sword intent swept outward, sending the sixty-or-so Cloud Soaring cultivators flying backward in all directions.
It was complete chaos. Shouts shook the heavens.
The distant onlookers were astonished, no exceptions.
One slash, and Su Yi had dealt the whole group a massive setback!
This strike was far more terrifying than the punch that had stopped Wen Xiuzhu, and its momentum was even more astonishing.
Even leading experts like Qin Suxin and Ren Changqing couldn’t help but narrow their eyes, their expressions uncharacteristically solemn.
Meanwhile, Su Yi had already disappeared in a flash. A moment later, he reappeared beside Li Xiaolin and seized him by the throat!
From beginning to end, Su Yi had thrown just a single punch and a single slash.
One punch forced Wen Xiuzhu back, and one slash destroyed the Northern Abyss Star Domain’s encirclement. Li Xiaolin had been reduced to a powerless chicken!
Witnessing this left the crowd dumbstruck.
Wen Xiuzhu’s expression filled with uncertainty. Earlier, a single punch had forced her back. Its terrifying power had dealt even this chosen daughter of heaven a massive blow, and her heart was full of lingering terror.
Too strong!
They couldn’t see any sign of Su Yi’s cultivation base, yet he was like a divine mountain stretching into the heavens, seemingly unmovable!
She’d only ever felt this way when sparring with her senior apprentice brother, Yu Chen!
Don’t tell me he’s the same type as senior apprentice brother? Wen Xiuzhu’s heart churned.
Meanwhile, the other Northern Abyss Star Domain cultivators’ faces filled with astonishment and dread. They no longer dared act recklessly.
Earlier, they figured they had the advantage in numbers. Now, they realized that against a heaven-defying figure like Su Yi, mere numbers meant nothing at all!
“Your Excellency, save me!” Li Xiaolin shrieked in terror, the sound stinging the ears.
Su Yi stood there, seizing him by the throat, his gaze cold and indifferent. “When I want to kill someone, no one between heaven and earth can save them.”
With that, he tightened his grip, and a tyrannical power spread from his hand.
It was as if Li Xiaolin had suffered death by a thousand cuts; bits of flesh sloughed off his frame, and his bones shattered, inch by inch. His face contorted in agony as he shrieked in desperation.
The crowd shuddered. They couldn’t help but recall Su Yi’s promise to make Li Xiaolin die in utter degradation.
“Stay your hand——!” Wen Xiuzhu gnashed her teeth. “Fellow Daoist Su, do you intend to make enemies out of everyone from the Northern Abyss Star Domain?”
Su Yi glanced at her. “Saying something like that only proves how stupid you are.”
Before his voice had even finished echoing through the air, Li Xiaolin’s body exploded into bits and disappeared.
As for his soul? Su Yi took it hand and continued speaking, entirely unperturbed. “All of you can rest assured. I’ll only kill those who’ve done wrong.”
Boom!
His divine sense struck like a sword, boring into Li Xiaolin’s soul and searching it.
From beginning to end, no one dared to stop him!
Even though Wen Xiuzhu’s entire body quivered with fury, in the end, she made no further attempts to stop him.
After all this, how could a Cloud Soaring expert like her fail to realize how terrifying Su Yi was?
It wasn’t just that they didn’t dare to interfere. The experts of the Northern Abyss Star Domain were intimidated by Su Yi’s cold cruelty and tyranny!
The experts of the Southern Flame and Western Chill Star Domains all watched on in unconcealable astonishment.
Su Yi, the legend of the Eastern Profound Star Domain, was far too strong!
Some of them recalled that, a few days prior, numerous people had provoked Su Yi, trying to goad him into a duel with Lu Meng in the Welcoming Grounds.
In the end, Lu Meng lost to the Qiongqi instead.
Now, after witnessing Su Yi’s strength firsthand, everyone suddenly realized how lucky Lu Meng had been, even factoring in how he’d pissed himself in public.
Had Su Yi attacked, how could Lu Meng possibly have survived?
Moments later, Su Yi crushed Li Xiaolin’s soul between his fingers. He’d already completed his search, and he’d seen Li Xioalin’s memories of how he and his companions had tormented Sword Immortal Qingshi and the Universal Emptiness Sword Buddha.
It was just as Sword Immortal Qingshi had said. Those Northern Abyss Star Domain experts’ methods were cruel and despicable to the extreme!
“Retreat!”
“Quick! Return to Northern Abyss Peak!”
Meanwhile, six members of the Northern Abyss Star Domain’s camp shot out of the crowd and fled toward the peak. It happened so suddenly that most of the crowd was at a complete loss.
But Su Yi knew that those were Li Xiaolin’s companions. They’d obviously sensed that this didn’t bode well, and they’d thus chosen to flee.
“It’s too late,” Su Yi said indifferently. He waved his sleeves, and six streaks of sword qi whooshed through the air. No matter how fast they’d fled, all six Cloud Soaring experts died on the spot!
Witnessing their bloody demise sent chills down countless spines.
Wen Xiuzhu’s beautiful face was ashen, and her eyes blazed with utter fury.
But it was as if Su Yi didn’t even notice.
He swept his gaze across the crowd and said, “Now, it’s time for me to pass judgment.”
As he spoke, a rain of light surged around his fingertips, forming curtains of light. They depicted scenes of what Li Xiaolin and his cohort had done to Sword Immortal Qingshi and the Universal Emptiness Sword Buddha as they seized their good fortune.
When the crowd saw this, they finally understood.
Li Xiaolin and the others’ methods really were despicable. They hadn’t just destroyed the Universal Emptiness Sword Buddha’s body; they’d dealt massive damage to his soul, too.
Moreover, if Sword Immortal Qingshi hadn’t fled just in time, they’d have crippled his cultivation base!
When the experts of the Eastern Profound Star Domain saw this, they gnashed their teeth with righteous indignation.
They’d suffered like this before too. Over the past few months, practically every expert of the Eastern Profound Star Domain had suffered humiliation while searching and competing for good fortune!
As for the experts of the other star domains? Their expressions revealed varying degrees of unease.
They’d all known about the situation. It was just that none of them had cared before this!
It was as Li Xiaolin had said while humiliating Sword Immortal Qingshi. If not for the rules restricting them, they’d have killed every last cultivator from the Eastern Profound Star Domain a long time ago!
But now...
Now that Su Yi had appeared, things had obviously changed.
Today, he’d attacked in full force, first killing Nie Yunwen and the experts of the Western Chill Star Domain’s Divine Spirit Immortal Sect, then destroying a group from the Northern Abyss Star Domain.
He’d killed almost twenty Cloud Soaring Transcendents in no time flat! What rules? What reason? Su Yi’s overwhelming strength let him crush them both beneath his feet!
Nothing like this had ever happened in the First Battleground before!
“Rules have never been able to restrict the wicked,” said Su Yi. His voice boomed throughout the utterly quiet landscape. “Thus, I’ve decided to set a rule that might as well not be a rule.”
He paused briefly.
“Competition is fine. Seizing good fortune is fine too. But... those who resort to unscrupulous means to humiliate cultivators of my Eastern Profound Star Domain will be executed!”
Boom!
The experts of the Eastern Profound Star Domain boiled over. All of them were visibly delighted, and their hearts filled with excitement.
In stark contrast, the experts of the other three camps were silent.
“This rule actually isn’t bad.” Ren Changqing stroked his jaw thoughtfully. And here he’d thought someone as ruthless as Su Yi would set a rule so strict the other camps could never have accepted it.
Who’d have thought Su Yi’s rule would be so simple?
All he wanted was to ensure that his fellow cultivators of the Eastern Profound Star Domain weren’t humiliated!
Qin Suxin and Wen Xiuzhu were obviously surprised too. This rule was much better than they’d anticipated.
“I’ve said all I have to say. I’ll just ask this: does anyone object?” Su Yi looked around.
Everything was silent on all sides. No one answered him.
Silence was the crowd’s unanimous answer.
“Since no one objects, I’ll take your silence as agreement,” said Su Yi. With that, he sipped from a jug of wine and turned to leave.
Naturally, no one dared intercept him. But before he’d gotten far, a voice as calm as flowing water suddenly emanated from within the stone room atop Northern Abyss Peak.
“Fellow Daoist Su, when I leave seclusion, I’d love to duel you in the Welcoming Grounds. What do you say?”
His voice spread throughout heaven and earth, like a morning bell or an evening drum.
A single name rose unbidden to the crowd’s minds.
Yu Chen!
He was the leading expert of the Northern Abyss Star Domain\'s camp, a mysterious and terrifying existence.
When they heard his voice, the other top experts, Ren Changqing and Qin Suxin, were stunned. Their expressions turned strange.
Yu Chen had obviously been paying attention to everything that had happened here!
But what they really found surprising was that he took the initiative to request a match with Su Yi after he left seclusion! This was the first time Yu Chen had decided to act since the Domain Boundary Battlefield had reappeared!
